 Polish Pavilion at Expo 2010 Channels Cultural Tradition Published: Apr 10, 09 Comments: 1 Views: 4,374 Inspired by the traditional motif of folk art papercut crafts, Polish architects won the bid to design the Polish Pavilion at Shanghai’s Expo 2010. The result is an eye-catching pavilion that looks like a folded sheet of paper with a cutout exterior. It will make an unforgettable impression during the day as the light plays around the building’s interesting shapes. And at night, the Polish Pavilion will defiantly stand out and give the crowd a mesmerizing experience.  First of all, we did not wish the design to be literally folklorish, a mechanical multiplication of convention-approved set patterns. The intention was for the structure décor to draw on and make reference to tradition, but ultimately to be that tradition’s contemporary reinterpretation, a creative extension into the present day by way of inspiration rather than replication.
